I've been doing this the last few weeks to give us a statistical breakdown of how the teams are doing
interesting to see where we are statistically going into the games so some of our over-reaction/under-reactions can have some depth.
the games against Toledo and UVA will skew our defensive stats downward as the season winds down. two dominant performances in those two games and we could have been looking at top 20 across the board
all stats are against FBS teams
plays per game
Pitt: 67
Miami:61
Points Per game
Pitt:23.5 (93rd)
Miami: 32.9 (32nd)
Yards Per Play
Pitt: 5.41 (92nd) (Virginia is 110th for reference)
Miami: 6.63 (16th) <-- up from 22nd last week
Redzone Scoring
Pitt: 77.8% (99th) --> due to terrible kicker
Miami: 93.9% (10th)
Redzone TD %
Pitt: 67% (33rd)
Miami: 60% (62nd) --> was near 100 before VT so crazy improvement here and was our biggest knock

Pitt: 28.4 (68th) (they only score 23 a game)
Miami: 18.2 (12th)
some quick points
*after looking over these things, there's no reason this should be less than a 3-4 score game. Pittsburgh doesn't execute and they are just as bad on defense as they are on offense. True freshman qb coming into a situation against the #1 TFL AND #1 sack team in the country when they are one of the worst teams in the nation in protecting the quarterback is going to be a huge factor
*their kicking game is terrible. Not even remotely good, if you look at the kicks he's made, I am shocked they couldn't have a student try out for the team and do better. If we limit them to field goals we could very well come away with stops and no points as he is one of the worst kickers in the nation
*They are among the nation's worst in TFL, Sacks, and opponent rush yard per attempt. It's going to be a field day, I would expect richt to run it down their throats and prepare for clemson
no injuries, get out of that yellow ****hole and prepare for the biggest game in YEARS (awesome that we keep saying that because we keep winning)
